SURAT: Twenty-first century’s first decade
saw huge development in city’s
Adajan-Rander and nearby areas.
Althan and Khajod that saw very little
by way of actual development have now
begun to witness boom with real
estate market shifting to the stretch towards Navsari.
It is only natural that the new residential localities are set up on this
stretch if planners hope to realise their dream of a Surat Navsari
twin city by 2025 with a projected population of 1.15 crore.
“These areas are buzzing with activity after sanctioning of final
town planning (TP) scheme No. 36 and four preliminary TP schemes.
The next decade will see a huge movement of middle class people to
Althan and Khajod,” said Jivan Patel, director of planning (DOP),
Surat Municipal Corporation. (SMC).
Areas like Abhwa, Bhartanana and Bhimrad-Sarsana near the university
will also see a lot of development.
“Land has almost exhausted towards Dumas, Bhimpore, Adajan- Pal and
other areas near the industries of Hajira. Therefore, these areas are now
witnessing development riding on the progress of BRTS corridor,
Sachin and Trade Centre projects,” said a builder who has a five 40-metre
tower projects at Althan.
South Gujarat Chamber of Commerce and Industries (SGCCI) president
Nilesh Mandelwala said, “The Trade Centre project, which has helped
development in the area around it, will hopefully be completed by
December 2009. If builders are to be believed, this area could become
Navi Mumbai of Surat.”
The Trade Centre, located near Sarsana village, will have 1.16 lakh sq metre
pillarless airconditioned hall with a 90 +35 metre pillarless dome.
